It was an exciting week in our house. We homeschool, and there are so very many benefits to it. One of which being we can adapt the learning to the ability of the child. My first grade son loves math. It comes extremely naturally to him. This week, we finished 2nd grade math and moved onto 3rd grade! Yay! How very exciting. (So now, next time you see me messing with numbers here, you’ll know it’s a family thing…we all love numbers).
Well, I knew I had to do a page to mark it. This is a sketch by my friend Ashley at Frosted Designs. Now, I had to do what works best for me with sketches. I’m not a sketch person, so I looked at it, made mental notes, then walked away. I pulled a few key things from it (the vertical blocking and the circles) and then did my own thing using those key features.
Supplies: American Crafts (cardstock & Thickers), Cosmo Cricket (papers & ledge letters), October Afternoon (paper and stickers), misc (bling & ink)

I like how it turned out! Such a big deal for the little guy too. Congrats to him.
Love the rulers and how the circles move your eyes across the page :)
I agree with everyone else about the use of rulers. Fabulous take on the sketch too. Thanks so much for joining us on our latest sketch over at Frosted Designs.
This is just perfect. I love the two photos, the layered circles and rulers- I love how crisp this layout looks!
